The Attitude of Gratitude


Eucharist Means Thanks

The Attitude of Gratitude is foundational to happiness - says both my Mum and Pastor Larry Madden, S.J.
Thanksgiving is coming up round the corner. What are we going to do so that people are filled with such overwhelming joy that they effuse and ooze thanks to their creator for all his goodness?

If you are in DC you can help donate to Miriam's Kitchen www.miriamskitchen.org/
run out of Western Presbyterian Church .[ http://www.westernchurch.net/They feed literally hundreds of homeless folk right across from the prestigious Watergate complex down the street from the Kennedy Center every week-day morning in DC and put on a nice big Thanksgiving spread with a smile every year.
THIS SUNDAY -they collect fresh fruit to be able to serve fresh fruit to the people living on the streets of DC which is a nice change from the usual street fare.
If you are anywhere in the hood drop off a bunch of oranges, tangerines, kiwis, or anything else that isn't going to rot in half a week. You will feel like you made someone really happy- and guess what -you did!
